Oh wow, here we go — a disorganized ramble through the craziness that is… PG Connects. If you’re into mobile gaming, yeah, that’s still their thing, but surprise! They’re throwing a whole new party with the Big Screen Gaming Summit in Finland. Imagine one ticket getting you into two events. It’s like buying a drink and getting free fries. Kind of.
But, let’s go deeper — we’re talking big stuff here like console and PC games, XR (yeah, I had to google that) and web3 whatever-majiggies. It’s a nerd’s playground of challenges and trends. Like, maybe you love new tech or you’re that person mixing up business models over breakfast. This summit’s your jam. It’ll either blow your mind or make you question why you ever doubted the chaos of game development. If you vibe on cutting-edge tech talks, discovering how games get their spark, or if you’re that one developer dreaming of pushing boundaries… well, come one, come all.
And then we have PG Connects Helsinki. History stuff, right? They’ve been rolling into Finland since 2014. It’s like visiting a friend who’s cool but also has wicked workshops and keynotes. Not sure why, but it’s like a warm hug from the Finnish game dev community every time. Weird visual, I know.
Tickets, tickets. If you’re keen, you can grab them early. Super cheap if you jump on it now, like €166 cheap. Not that I know what that gets you in Helsinki — maybe a coffee? Excludes students, though, but hey… 200 speakers, 14 tracks. It sounds overwhelming, but picture it: you, in a sea of over 1,500 brainy folk. Networking! From newbies to the folks who run companies you’ve probably heard of while drinking your morning coffee. Eh, who am I kidding? Pay attention to that opportunity to meet C-level whatevers from big brands.
All this happens in October, and did I mention, super discounted rates if you decide to take that leap? Head to the website to snag those prices before you forget and regret it.
It’s a chaotic, fun, and wow-that’s-a-lot-of-people kind of event. So if you feel like swimming in the deep end of the gaming industry’s wild pool — catch you there!
